Anthropic PBC aims to raise at least $30 billion in a new financing round, targeting a pre‑money valuation above $900 billion.
The round may close by end‑May 2026, with no term sheets signed yet, while the startup eyes an IPO as early as October 2026.
Google (Alphabet) and Amazon have prior commitments of $10 billion and $5 billion respectively at $350 billion valuation, with potential extra $30 billion and $20 billion contingent on milestones.
Founded in 2021 by ex‑OpenAI staff, Anthropic now focuses on enterprise AI for cybersecurity and software development.
